Exactly as the topic says. I've been super busy as of late. Anyways check my gallery out. I update everyweek. http://dirkrichards.deviantart.com

Most of my art is post apocalyptic in theme. Thanks. Bye.

Anything post-apocalyptic in my book starts as good. This is very good! When I have more time, I'll check it out.

Heh. Thanks. If one of the moderator's or admin could move the topic there that'd be great. Either way it is fine with me.

Good stuff, the landscapes especially. I'm not so hot about your figures (not to say they're bad), but I quite like the landscapes. You've got the dried, sun-cracked wasteland part down. Do you do all your stuff in MSpaint?

Also, wrong forvm.

Actually no. I taught myself how to use it so I can work on art when I am out of supplies. Lately I have had to balance my time between MS Paint and pen and ink. I will be getting photoshop 8 from a friend. And then I can do more!

I donno, photoshop frequently produces awful results. There's something to be said for good ol' fashioned MS Paint.

Hey, nice stuff here Mitchell. It's interesting and refreshing. I really do think you have talent.

Thank you very much Vendetta.

You can always get the GIMP, it can have the same power as Photoshop...

Paintshop Pro is the best program I've encountered thus far for photoshopping and such. Ofcourse, I know jack shit about CGing, so I just use it to resize my artwork.

Yeah... As much as I like open-source, it doesn't work the same on Windows as in Linux, so those dependencies are not filed in a few seconds and the libraries don't come with the program...

But it's still worth it for some free shit!

I thought that it said Dick Richards.

Haha. Yeah everyone gets it confused the first time with the name of my gallery. Actually it's the main character of my story Trash, Garbage and Refuse here is the link: www.freewebs.com/lacklustre

You're surprisingly articulate, Janus. What happened?

Janus Matchell · Post by **Janus Matchell** » Mon Feb 06, 2006 8:08 pm

I got off of the Excedrin and other fine pain relievers I was addicted to for a long time. It took almost 8 months to get clean. So now I am enjoying the sober life.
